if you have more than one worldstate, pick for the one you consider your "main"/"canon" worldstate or the one you plan to use first for da4! also feel free to lay out your reasoning in the tags gushing about your dragon age runs is accepted and encouraged here.

Thinking about Elizabeth Woodville as a gothic heroine is making me go insane. She entered the story by overturning existing social structures, provoking both ire and fascination. She married into a dynasty doomed to eat itself alive. She was repeatedly associated with the supernatural, both in terms of love and death. Her life was shaped entirely by uncanny repetitions - two marriages, two widowhoods, two depositions, two flights to sanctuary, two ultimate reclamations, all paralleling and ricocheting off each other. Her plight after 1483 exposed the true rot at the heart of the monarchy - the trappings of royalty pulled away to reveal nothing, a never-ending cycle of betrayal and war, the price of power being the (literal) blood of children. She lived past the end of her family name, she lived past the end of her myth. She ended her life in a deeply anomalous position, half-in and half-out of royal society. She was both a haunting tragedy and the ultimate survivor who was finally free.

Omera: no din, we are not moving, even if these attackers come back. this place is culturally significant to us. We must stay strong in preserving our way of life

Also Omera: helmet shelmet right

(This is not really to dunk too hard on Omera lol bc i think her purpose was to show ignorance of even well meaning ppl and how hard it truly is to settle down for him)

SLKDJFSLDKJFLKSDJ that is unfortunately an impression that they gave with the execution of that scene 😭

Thinking thoughts about Abuela being back and with this backstory about her being taken in by charlatans and Eddies whole catholic guilt thing and how the two things kind of play into one another as an exploration of faith and being taken in by something.

Abuela giving all her money to the tarot card readers etc because she was searching for something - for connection (with Abuelo) - trying to recapture what she had lost, and How Eddie has spoken about trying to re-find the magic he had with Shannon - how Eddie hasn't actually fully reconciled the Shannon of it all when it comes to relationships and how his Catholic guilt connects into that.

How Marisol as a physical representation of Catholicism is part of that narrative - how Eddie is entering a place where he has to chose his path - in order to move on from Shannon he needs to fully square the hole - catholic or non catholic. And how that needs to happen first - before he can begin his queer journey!

Something I always wonder with the whole: "The lazy populous doesn't want to work!" is if it's only being said to keep minimum wage at the very, very lowest end of 'survivability.'

The "lazy worker" isn't truly a problem. The employers are.

A year without meds has me sitting on my bed going yeah I could take my evening dose but what will I DO while I'm on it? I can't just waste it. So like. It's not quite sunk in yet that I can just take them and I will have more. I can take them and do whatever I want, and whatever it is I do will be done better than I've managed in a year. It's okay if that's video games. I've told way too many folks in the Adhd alien server that meds don't have to only be for work for me to start falling into that trap myself.

:(( genuine question though, do you think koreans actually know about the boycotts? im sure they know about the war itself and yes there are protests for it (but to be fair, protests in general are really common in korea), but as the boycott is mainly spread through the english-speaking side of social media, couldn’t it be that they just aren’t aware? like yes they are grown adults and they do have access to the internet, but if information on the boycotts/ those companies aren’t even spread on the korean-side of the internet, how are they expected to learn about it or educate themselves? of course if they’re supporting them knowingly then… :/ but it seems unfair to assume that koreans should definitely know about these boycotts, even if they do know about the war… wouldn’t it be better to give them benefit of doubt…?

the boycott exists in every language in all countries. if Italians know about it, koreans do too. you don't have to speak english to be aware of it. just because they're celebrities they don't deserve more benefit of the doubt or affection from me than any other person alive. doyoungs ig comments and bubble are invaded by people informing him of the boycott in all languages he can understand. all the people posing randomly with Starbucks cups (when they usually hide the labels - meaning they're probably paid to do so) are also invaded with comments informing them on the matter. Korean social media is invaded with information on the matter. koreans are suddenly aware of small issues such a insult left in the comments to be able to sue and yet they're suddenly unaware of something this big?

everyone is insulting the korean intelligence by assuming they're living in a bubble.

they're not children. they're not your friends. they're not your family. blind support makes no sense and any "attack" on the idols you love should not be a personal attack on you as a person and a fan.

you should like your idol because they're brave, wise, kind, and a source of inspiration. you should like an idol because they act right and are good. that's what an idol is. especially given their platform their actions are more impactful than mine or yours because they can impact a huge group of people.

you can do whatever you want to, no one is in your head and your home to know if you still like an idol or not but if your energy is now spent trying to understand an idol's pov and giving them the benefit of the doubt then you should put that energy into not being quiet about the Palestinians children murdered and people tortured, with no food to eat, no water, under constant bombing, being the victims of a GENOCIDE, whole the Israeli troops are feasting on FREE McDonald's in their tanks and posting it on social media boasting about how many people they killed that day

Asuka is a tragic figure, a figure of mystery, a wild card, all because the only thing she wants in life is peace and quiet for herself and to feel in control- yet her secret heritage that may be hidden from her for her own protection and the reality that life is unpredictable and will go on with or without you keep ruining that delusion, that vision of how the world is meant to work to her, and she suffers regardless of what she wants, what she does, and how little she understands anything

She was born into a family preaching peace and balance and order while being a creature of violence, and puts a dozen mental locks and excuses over this truth to justify giving into her impulse for fighting by pretending she's justice when she does it

She keeps trying to build a place of safety but she's using sand and life is a wave that destroys, yet she stubbornly persists rather than give up, not drowned to the point of self centered suicidal loathing like Jin- there's contrast, where Jin is cloaked in death Asuka stubbornly clings to life and humanity as a normal person in a terrifying world

She's not a fucking narrative clone for Jun's own purpose, Asuka's purpose must be determined by Asuka herself

Back to the grind tomorrow and lemme tell you what, while I do really enjoy tumblr I sure did like not having to be Online all the time during our break.. And I've been thinking that the amount I'm Online and Available will probably be much lower this year compared to the past. So if I'm not responding to asks as fast or posting as much or w/e, that's why! Thanks for understanding 🙏

WHEN I FALL ASLEEP | PART IV | 8K | RATED E

The letters had dried up.

George had stopped sending them, for good, maybe, and Joe propped the crutches against the trunk of the tree, turning to lean back against it. He could see the window, from here. Imagined himself sitting on the other side, like he did most days, like a mirror.

Joe had decided, sometime right before 1946 had crashed over him, as suffocating and as soft as a pillow, that he wasn’t going to write to George.

He’d as good as died a year ago.

It felt counterproductive to pretend that he hadn’t.
